The militants in the middle-east are just trying to demonstrate what they stand for is violence and murder against democracy. They will not be happy until they enslave the world and make your mother, sister, and daughter wear a burka and shrink in Fear.

So there are militants in Iraq blowing up the Iraqis now, but not before.

The US created the conditions whereby this happened. I bet if someone threw their kid in front of a moving train you would say they didn' run it over. You would literally be correct. They were responsible for the outcome anyway. Peacekeeping? You start a shooting war, occupy a country and you are just la-di-da peacekeepers? Right.

The hyperbole about the radicals wanting everyone to wear burkas etc is just that. The only one who can take away our freedoms is ourselves. Some two bit thugs are going to dictate how you dress? In what universe? Suppose you tell us how that could practically come about?

Nonsense.

If you are going to kill people you need to justify it morally. Therefore those we kill are evil. I think I got that right. Anyway it is something like that.

Those who make war are the most moral of people. Just ask them. Always a holy cause in their thinking. A bullet in the head is the most beautiful of statements to some.

Bush is running scared. I'm suprised he and Condi are leaving the safety of the Crawford bunker.

I think it's why Jesus preached to the worthless. They had less pretentious egos and were already closer to the truth.
